EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this vintage print from Memory Lane Prints is the Cardiff River Ely Subway, a significant landmark of the 1960s. The image takes us back to September 30th, 1963, when Gill Thomas, a dedicated employee of British Transport Docks and resident of Plassey Street in Penarth, embarked on one of his final journeys through this iconic subway. The photograph showcases the bustling turnstile at the end of the subway, symbolizing both an entrance and an exit for countless commuters during that era. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, we are transported to a time when public transportation was at its peak and played a vital role in connecting communities. Gill Thomas's presence adds a personal touch to the image; his face reflects years of hard work and dedication within British Transport Docks. His journey through this very subway represents not only his own experiences but also those shared by many others who relied on it daily. This print serves as a window into Cardiff's past—a testament to its rich history and ever-evolving urban landscape. It allows us to appreciate how far we have come while reminding us of the importance of preserving our heritage for future generations.
